  • 1 person is interested

Garlic mustard, an invasive species, is at its peak, and we need your help to remove it in Phalen Regional Park in the Payne-Phalen neighborhood, just south of Maplewood. We are holding drop-in volunteer events to help us attack this pesky plant. Gloves will be available. No experience necessary--this is a great activity for anyone who loves to weed. Join us on your way home from work!

Come any time between 5 and 7 p.m., even if you can only stay for 30 minutes. Start south of Round Lake and west of Lake Phalen.
